    Love it - battery lasts forever! paddles are a bit hard to get used to, I recommend only using 2 at first (in FPS games I do right paddle for jump, left paddle for melee)

    I honestly love everything about this controller with regard to the features and way it changes how I play. However, I am needed to replace the controller again after having button issues and stick drift issues. I always take great care of my tech so these widespread mechanical issues are a damper on an otherwise great controller. Definitely get the Best Buy replacement warranty for this one.

    Yup. It feels good to use it and the bottom triggers make a difference. I didn't notice much difference between the series 1 and series 2, so I don't know that it's worth paying to replace if you own one already.

    Love/Hate Relationship with these controllers. Without a doubt better than any aftermarket controllers (Scuf). Purchased to replace a worn out Elite Series 2. Unfortunately right out of the box the back button broken.

    I expected the controller to have at least somethings missing since it was open box but there wasn’t anything missing and I’m glad to buy this item cheap cause it’s actually good and fun to play with.

    Very good controller when it works. I would rate higher but it has problems with stick drift, buttons getting stuck and/or double click. If you buy, make sure you have a warranty.
